d. In part, due to limited liability and ease of ownership transfer, corporations have less trouble raising money in financial markets than other organizational forms.

Explanation:

In a corporate form of company, the partners hold equity shares, and the number of shares can be unlimited. Accordingly, the liability of each partner is up to the amount of share, and are not held personally liable.

Also since there are huge number of partners the amount of funds are never short and it grows, further because of this the company is even able to raise huge funds, which is not possible for other forms of organization.
